He is the biggest cherry raiser in Watuaga, having 1 over 300 trees of everv kind. They will be ripe in three weeks, and he has one of the largest crops in his history. He *ill can and sell on the market. Mr. Ray says the peaeh crop in the mountains this year will be one of the best ever raised. The co!d winds have caused a good many appl-s to fall off but the blight, which Mr. Ray noticed in fruit trees from the foot of the mountains on down, has not yet struck the mountain fruit. Watauga raises also the fines". potatoes, cabbage and other vegetables in the c unt*y, and celery grows prolifically there and has a flover surpassing Kalamaz >o. If Watauga only had a railroad she would be the commissory of the State. Mr. Ray says that work starts on the Yadkin & Watauga R. R. at Wilkesboro June 4th.

But Watauga is minded to vote bonds for the road, for she knows what she could do if she had it. She believes in her self.
